Just Choose

I want to write letters
Pitiful words of love
And not of love
But manipulation
of being the villain
Disguised as the hero
My own dragon
Has breathed the fire
Safety net
I don’t get it
Instead, I get wet
But I love the water
so I stay
Until the same
Is up again
This is not anything
Anyone can win
or lose
Just choose
to live
